See you soon S&P 500, Nasdaq, Dow and Russell 2000...

Creditcane™: Told you it wasn't safe to hold over the weekend. I'm just getting started.

SPXBearish short day (confirmed bearish engulfing). Midpoint below EMA(10). Still below SMA(21). Tested and held trend line (3/6/09-7/1/10). Tested and failed the 23.6% (1341.90). New low on daily 3LB (reversal is 1363.61). QE2infinity. "JBTFD. Any questions?"

Richard Barnes, a regular Joe citizen of Indiana, who was in the midst of marital problems with his wife one evening in 2007. The couple was arguing when police arrived to the scene and attempted to enter the home.

Barnes made it very clear to the officers that they were not to enter his home. The officers did not have a warrant, and they did not have probably cause to believe that anything illegal was happening. But they entered regardless.

Barnes tried to block the door, and as the police officers muscled their way past him, he shoved one of them against the wall in defense of his property. Barnes was choked and tasered in his own home, subsequently hospitalized, then charged with misdemeanor battery on a police officer.

The case went to court, and the Barnes defense team cited a private citizen’s right to resist unlawful entry into one’s home. They lost. The case was appealed, all the way up to the Indiana Supreme Court. Here’s where it gets interesting.

The Court agreed that the police officers entered the Barnes home illegally. The Court further agreed that one’s right to resist illegal entry has existed since the Magna Carta. The Court further agreed that the US Supreme Court has reaffirmed this right to resist unlawful entry in numerous court cases.

Seems pretty cut and dry, no?

Yet, in summarizing the court’s opinion, Justice Steven David writes, “We hold that there is -no right- to reasonably resist unlawful entry by police officers.”

I'm actually sort of a Heat fan. I've always liked the way D.Wade played and I actually became 'sympathetic' to Heat due to the incessant Heat bashing I heard most of the year (on Talk Radio) when they were 'struggling.'

LBJ is a Man Beast and D.Wade is a stud. Chicago's defense is friggin fantastic...all of Thibadeau's D's have been good (Houston under Van Gundy, Boston under Doc Rivers).

I think it's going to be a really good series. Luol Deng was sort of 'sick' in that Game 1...not sure he repeats that sort of performance. LBJ/D.Wade looked "off" coming off the Boston Series.

The announcer on TV mentioned he was probably the best athlete on the field. I said the same thing to my buddies at the time.

There was probably only one player on that field that could have done a similar thing...Jose Reyes, the Mets shortstop....who looked pretty friggin' athletic to me.

AR. He did get caught..but I think he gets off easy. He gets to collect on whatever 'bet' was made to him...and he's got his 15 minutes of fame....so, if you asked him, he'd probably tell you he'd do it all over again.

"There was probably only one player on that field that could have done a similar thing"

I was thinking the same thing when I was watching the TAJ GIBSON dunks... And the name of that player was, the ONE, the ONLY... David Thompson... (the man that could take a take a quarter off th top of the backboard & leave the change)...

Making BILLIONS, "on paper", IMO requires as much LUCK as skill (the inherent problem with putting your trust in PAPER)...

I think you have to be arrogant to expect that you'll succeed in doing both...

I suppose "small frys" have a chance tho...

Bill Gross & Warren Buffett???

I'm not thinking that it's going to be so easy for them (but I suppose they already have some kinda farmland in Montana & Argentina along with a few bars of gold)...

If I'm a small fry trying to trade my way to paper riches these days, I'm not liking my chances in ending up with something REDEEMABLE (unless I'm making enough to siphon off something physical in the process)...

I would never ride one of those bulls, those things are friggen huge, and angry, and horns. It's funny he fell off right away but I also give him a ton of credit for even giving it a shot. He got a Ford F150 out of it and is giving it away which is cool.

AT,

Not a Heat fan, and admitted fellow basher, I'll never forget the post-game interview I saw live during the regular season when Lebron stated that he would "continue his greatness in Miami"

yeah, he's awesome, I'm not denying that, but a little bit a humility might be in order here, I sure as hell never heard Magic, Bird, MJ, or any other great player talk about their greatness before they ever won a title....or several. I can't even stand Isaiah Thomas but I watched that guy ball his eyes out remembering titles they won on an ESPN Classics episode because of what it meant for him to be part of a team that went all the way, it wasn't about his greatness though. You don't see Kobe saying stuff like that, and Kevin Durant is all of Lebron James as far as I'm concerned.

Little tough to respect a guy much acting like that. I do like D wade, even followed him back at Marquette and I like Chalmers as well but they aren't going to be able to play this weak isolation stuff against the bulls and thats the problem because thats all the Heat have done all season. The Bulls are no joke and I love it, brings back a lot of memories of MJ who I was hooked on as a kid.

It's not one of those blogs that they TRACK YOU DOWN to your IP# to see what kind of processor you're using, whether or not you're a registered democrat, whether or not you're a fag, or what kind of soup you like is it???

Agreed that the "weak isolation" shit will not work against the bulls in the long run.

I still like them in Seven games against the Bulls. It should be an epic series.

Bwahahahhahhaahahah

It probably is....

Though, Cuban is still good in my book....as he probably discloses it somewhere.

I've been looking at things... My take is that the NFL will, in fact, start ON SCHEDULE...

I figured out the reason for the delay...

L-A-Y-W-E-R-S

They bill by THE HOUR... So there's NO POINT in getting a deal done before, probably, 5 past MIDNIGHT...

So that explains the delay...

Now, ONTO the season...

WEEK ONE has several 'interesting' games...

SAINTS - PACKERS (Thursday opening game)

Packers are likely to be installed as 4 point favorites... I'd FADE that... I'll take the SAINTS & 4 points any day of the week here...

STEELERS - RAVENS

Ravens will probably be 3 point favorites (playing at home edges the line 3 pts your way - which basically makes this game a PICK 'EM)... FADING the Superbowl LOSING team is a high % bet... Plus, the Ravens will give then no quarter... This is a gift... TAKE THE RAVENS (even tho CV has a Ravens bias)...

GIANTS - REDSKINS/COWBOYS - JETS

The NFL is doing a 9/11 "10 year anniversaty" thing... The SCHEDULE came out BEFORE Obama decided to take Bin Laden out of the ice box and bump up his polling numbers in the wake of the birth certificate Photoshop fraud...

In any case...

The REDSKINS 'Blow"... Take the Giants... & I'll go with the J-E-T-S Jets, Jets, Jets too...
